OK, we can now watch A&E in HD. Why is it not in widescreen? Apologies if this was previously addressed.

Not that I agree with ANY advertised HD station showing sd content AT ALL, but i'd rather that a&e HD show sd content in 4:3 than pull the same crap that tnt HD does and stretch the darn image all out and make it look terrible.
The SD picture is far superior to the SD picture on non-HD channels. This is what SD "should" look like. Hopefully, as more people get HD and see the difference they will force E* to improve the picture quality on SD channels.
Also folks, please remember that just because it is a pillarboxed show does NOT automatically mean it is not high definition! Like "Northern Exposure" on Universal TV, it could have been remastered from the original film to be HD video. Film (even the cheap stuff) has much more resolution than the best HD sets.

Before I lost CBSHD I only watched Survivor from CBSHD... even if I zoomed /stretched it the PQ was better...
I was referring to shows like the Sopranos and 24. They seem to be in HD (HD Lite?) but are shown in the 4:3 format. I'm sure there are others as well.
Sopranos is coming in HD according to the last Charlie Chat, Recap Here , click on the 5th Mp3 at bottom...
